The furthest distance I've gone for a cache was 6535 km east to drop off a TB headed to Holland. I needed to deliver the bug somewhere near its owners and the closest cache that I actually found was in Ghent, Belgium (Specht) where we spent a few days. I tried finding a cache in Holland but all the caches in the area I was at were multis and the translation off the computer didn't come through very well.

I have a few samples - all of them on my blue HPV. All of these were done only to go looking for a single cache (and possibly go for a ride).

The longest I have travelled for a single cache (that was eventually found) was Winnipeg GPS Validation Network. This may not count since it is a multi, but it took one month and ~340km - the longest leg at 117km.

I did 125km to not find 'April Foolish'.

The longest single cache ride that I have done was 158km. This included a stunning trip through Warren and Stonewall, 60km+ winds which were great going north and very bad going south. The direct line trip should have been much shorter but I was having far to much fun going with the wind and overshot the cache location a bit.

I have done a number of other similar (possibly longer) rides that involved caching but there was either more than 1 cache involved or there was some other purpose to the ride.

Much like burchil, a single cache may have spurred a trip, but many others were found along the way. I've done several large loops to the east through the whiteshell for those reasons. One of the more memorable ones: I was in Portage one day, found a spot to hide a cache. The next day a cache was published in that exact spot. I returned the next day to grab the FTF on it and carried on to get the FTF on Trilateration at Riding Mountain. Of course I stopped and did many other great caches around Riding Mountain.
